Chapter: 2156
Mrs. Xiao was overjoyed but still suppressed her excitement, with a look of sorrow on her face: "I don't have a lunchbox, my daughters-in-law are almost dead, I can't afford that stuff"
As she spoke, Mrs. Xiao spotted the plastic bags hanging by the counter and blurted out: "Why not? Big sister, just put all those leftover dishes and rice into these plastic bags for me, I'll carry them back home!"
The staff hurriedly nodded and said: "I don't mind, as long as you're okay with it!"
Mrs. Xiao quickly added: "Don't mind, don't mind!"
Very soon, the staff managed to get all the leftover dishes and rice packaged into four large plastic bags for Mrs. Xiao.
Mrs. Xiao regretted it as soon as she got her hands on it, thinking to herself: "This many leftover dishes and rice are really too much! How am I going to carry them back?"
But then she thought: "No way, no matter what, I have to carry them back. There are these leftovers to eat, my family at least can make do for two days. Otherwise, we'll rely on the money I earned today - is it really necessary to spend that much?"
Thinking about this, all she could do was thank people and grit her teeth as she carried the four large bags of food back home.
On the way back, Mrs. Xiao couldn't bear to take a taxi.
From here, taking a taxi would cost a lot of money - I earned exactly one hundred yuan after working hard all day, and it's possible that most of it would be gone if I took a taxi.
After thinking about it, she decided to take the public bus instead.
So, she went to the roadside convenience store and bought two hot dogs, thinking she could use them to feed Xiao Changkun and Xiao Hailong, and also get some change for taking the public bus.
On the public bus, other seniors were swiping their senior cards to ride for free. Mrs. Xiao couldn't, so she had to put in a yuan coin into the fare box.
Actually, she had known this beforehand - people with local hukou who are 65 years old or older can go to the civil affairs department to get a free public bus pass for seniors.
But before that, Mrs. Xiao never took public buses. She always relied on private cars and drivers, so at that time, she wouldn't have thought about using a free senior's public bus pass.
She thought to herself, "I'll just use this card. If I don't have it, I'll make one and that's still embarrassing."
But now she regrets not doing so earlier, thinking to herself, "Looks like I've waited too long, people are back at work after the New Year, then I should hurry up and get an old-age card, at least taking public transportation won't cost money, saving a few bucks a day, which can add up to quite a bit by the end of the month!"
Mrs. Xiao was exhausted and finally returned to her apartment in Touchen.
As she entered the entrance of Touchen, she was preparing to swipe her card when a well-dressed middle-aged woman came running out, pinching her nose, shouting at Mrs. Xiao: "Where are you from, old lady? Carrying trash bags and walking towards this place? Do you know where this is? This is Touchen! Here, even a single room apartment costs several million yuan!"
Mrs. Xiao was about to faint from exhaustion when a woman suddenly appeared out of nowhere, yelling at her: "Get your mom off me! Do you know where Mrs. Xiao lives? She lives in A04, Touchen! Look at your ridiculous appearance, all decked out like a wild chicken, and I bet you can only afford a low-rise apartment on the outskirts!"
The woman heard this and flew into a rage, slapping Mrs. Xiao across the face with her hand, saying: "Dead old lady, Mrs. Xiao's apartment is worth over two million yuan! What right do you have to mock me? You're just a poor slob, how dare you say you live in an apartment like this? Don't you even qualify?"
Mrs. Xiao didn't expect that after working hard all day, she would arrive at her doorstep only to be slapped by a stranger.
The woman who slapped her continued to yell: "Wretched old lady, have you eaten your fill of pork? And now you're trying to pretend to be something you're not, acting like you own the place! What's wrong with your brain?"
After finishing, she immediately yelled at the nearby security guard: "Hey, come quickly! Are you blind or something? I spent over 20 million yuan buying a house from you guys. Do you guys provide services to dignified homeowners like me? How can a trashy old lady like her just waltz in here and disrupt our owners' mood and interests?"
The security guard was also very anxious. JrNovels.com
